Is your country doing well in the Olympics?
>>
>>153562215
Wait. Where’s our little bro?
>>
>>153562215
All white countries and America
>>
>>153562232
11th place. And it's actually pretty good, but think of little Norway with a population of 5 million doing so well. Are we ruining the fun?
>>
>>153562215
>The Olympics
They're not for another 2 years, champ.
>>
>>153562257
Norway always wins the Winter and we the Summer. Just the way of the world. The other countries always scrambling for the scraps... Sad!
>>
>>153562346
We are doing pretty well at the summer Olympics too.
>>
>>153562346
This.
If we take 2nd place in the winter games i consider it an excellent showing for us that year.
I just assume norway is de facto #1 due to all the ski shit unless i hear otherwise
>>
>>153562419
But you never win. Winter is your domain, ours Summer. To interfere with this separation would be like the Sun trying to steal the Moon's domain. It would lead to apocalypse.

Wait I just looked at the last Summer Olympics and you guys did fucking awful. You were 17th, with only 4 Golds. Fucking Kenya was ahead of you. You are definitely not good at the real Olympics.
>>
>>153562577
How is it awful you retarded nigger when they have the tiniest population compared with the rest of these countries
Niggers really can't into per capita
>>
>>153562215
Yes it is, for what is expected from us
>>
Norway ia undergoing a sports boom
>>
They should have only one, maybe max two representatives for each sport from every country. US sending 594 athletes to the summer olympics is retarded.

Currently the US has 232 athletes for 116 events. However this does not guarantee anything, as you can still be KWAB tier like canada with nearly the same amount of athletes and have just 15 medals (0.073 medals per athlete, compared to norways 0.425).

Should just start using this metric for comparing medal amounts
>>
I've been wondering this for a while, but which is the correct ranking: the team with the most gold medals, or the team with the most combined gold, silver and bronze medals?
Which do the IOC and other officials choose?
>>
>>153563157
It always goes by most gold then silver and bronze are for tiebreaks.
>>
>>153562346
Many such cases
>>
>>153563354
Dumb. Japan and Germany should be higher than France.
>>
>>153562215
Pretty pretty pretty good
>>
>>153563179
>>
>>153563377
>Kazakhstan 1/0/0
>Finland 0/1/4
Which would you rather be?
>>
>>153563354
I understand, so the number of gold medals won is the priority. Thank you.

It should be determined on a point system like chess.

Gold = 5 points
Silver = 3 points
Bronze = 1 points

Olympic points has been a thing here for decades

7 points for gold
5 points for silver
4 points for bronze
3 points for 4th
2 points for 5th
1 point for 6th place

Not a lot of people use it anymore though and I don't like how it's weighted
3 points for a 4th place is way too much
>>
>>153562577
Our golds the last two summer olympics have been pretty prestigeous. 400m hurdles (WR), decathlon, triathlon, 5000m, etc. It's not like we're winning meme-golds
>>
>>153562577
what a retarded post
>>
>>153562232
OP refused to pull an 'SEC' media moment and make a top-11 to include Bama err Canada.
>>
>>153562215
Good enough. Could have been better, could have been worse, as the hosts
>>
>>153562215
I don't see Canada on that list. Is that a typo?
They have more "caught cheating" than Gold medals.

I'm embarrassed for them.
>>
>>153565329
Bama at least won something in the last 30 years

Our best Winter Olympics ever with a couple more medal hopes to come. Now that we've won golds in something other than Skeleton and Curling and we should invest a fair bit more in snow sports now too, so watch out in 2030!
>>
>>153563157
I think they officially deny any sort of medal table ranking but still rank it by gold first on the olympics site so...

gold medals are titles which is the most important for the ranking. total medals actually shows the real strength of a country.

Undervalues winners. Gold = 5, Silver = 2, Bronze = 1.

Overperforming in shorttrack sneedskating, but on the long track the man are jobbing. But it evens eachother out.

>just realized a large percent of USA's golds are from roasties
>and its fucking homo skating
Holy FUCK. We should not be proud of this
>>
Why is it so hard to find Olympic medal tables that separate men and women?
>>
>>153562215
Definitely not. This is embarrassing even for our shitty modern standards. Genuinely grim
With 8 golds, damage would be somewhat limited and it would only be a standard humiliation. But some more chokes and it's kys tier
I also just want to say that I hate these meme freestyle judged events

It's hilarious how much America has declined in the last 50 years. We're basically a richer version of Brazil, yet we still had an all-time best performance at the rich kids' talent show known as the Winter Olympics.
>>
>>153562257
Nah honestly it's pretty amusing. Just goes to show how non-competitive the whole event is. The whole thing is bottleneck'd by money.

1. Winter Olympics aren't real Olympics. 2. Female medals don't mean anything.

Thank you, you now know the truth.

If we get one silver and five bronzes it will be much better than anyone expected. I didn't even realize that we had one silver already.
